Title |
The Lilliputan satirists |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: A scene at Bath. Two ladies (right) walk arm in arm, left to right and slightly towards the spectator. They wear chemiselike dresses through which the contour of their legs is apparent, the tops of their stockings being visible. One wears a bonnet with a single erect feather, a closed fan in her right hand; with her right hand she loops up her skirt, increasing her indecorous appearance. The other wears no hat, but holds up a small parasol on a hinged stick. On the right, and walking away from the ladies, is Wolcot (Peter Pindar), a plainly dressed, stout man holding a cane and raising his hat. Beneath the title:

Licensing
[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. |
